🎙️ I'm on a podcast! 🎙️
I was interviewed about my book Chinese Characters Across Asia for the @newbooksnetwork.bsky.social , you can find the episode here: newbooksnetwork.com/chinese-char... .
My first time ever on a podcast. I was nervous at first, but Miranda Melcher was a great host.

I hope my new article does justice to Dunhuang Cave 257, where narrative paintings, I argue, subvert traditional power dynamic between male viewers & female subjects. Here, male characters—young monk, beautiful stag, Buddha—are subject to the intense gaze of a female audience.

For my China studies friends here: new Wilkinson just dropped. 7th edition, huge news. On Pleco, too.
If you don’t know what that means, do you even sinologize, bro?
